Lightbars, ringflash, litepanels, kinoflows...
So for those of us who are total equipment geeks, who has been trying and getting results with the more esoteric of the lighting equipment available for use? Show some of the most fun lights you have used by uploading them here. This is not a critique, this is more the sharing of ideas between photographers. Star   small lightbar on the floor pointing upward asa fill, second gelled light from the side, large lightbar from the back as you can see this is a scan from a medium format slide Jan 16 07 03:34 am Link Jan 16 07 04:41 am Link Ring Light Prototype :  Results :  Jan 16 07 01:57 pm Link Just playing around.

Skip the wall plate and bind the shop lights together with mending straps and screws. Skip the umbrella adapters and instead attach a block of 2x4 to the middle of the shop lights, then screw in a large lagbolt and leave about 2 1/2" sticking out. Now this lag bolt fits into a super clamp mounted to a c stand, and you saved $30 per light.

Daylight in background and shot at f4.  Jan 18 07 04:23 pm Link really good examples here guys! Another ringlight, but this one was pretty darn good! And i'd love to see the contraption that made the asian girl's picture. And I'd love to see her  Jan 18 07 05:20 pm Link |
